After 50 Cent revealed that he no longer has love for his son, Waka Flocka chimes in with his own thoughts.

gWith For Life coming to an end soon and the release of Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter, 50 Cent has been doing rounds in the media with appearances on XXL and Ari Melber's Instagram Live. They've been insightful, to say the least, as Fif typically isn't one to hold his tongue. He was asked about the status of his relationship with his son.

"When you pray for success, you don't necessarily pray for the things that come with it. It's no such thing as success without jealousy without envy or entitlement," he explained. Then, Fif was asked whether he still loves his son. "I used to. A complication question would be how long do you love something that don't love you back?"

Surely, this is a controversial take, especially among parents. How can you not love your firstborn son anymore? Apparently, it's deeper for Waka Flocka who took to Instagram to share his thoughts on the matter. "Can't fuck wit a person that don't fuck with their own kids," Waka wrote on IG. He didn't mention any names, though but it's quite clear who he's talking about anyways.

What's surprising is that there hasn't been any public tension between either party in the past but in recent times, Waka Flocka's made a concerted effort in voicing his opinion on the important matters in life such as the #FlipTheSwitch challenge.
